Which closing slide hits better? A. "What did we just lose without a save to inference hook on this call?" B. "How much did we just lose without a save to inference hook on this call?"

We need more apps to experiment with new use cases. But how do we solve the interoperability problem? Where’s the selective publishing and easy context switching? How do we get to a web that’s a bit more enjoyable …and sane?

Right now I’m juggling social accounts, features, and interactions on Orb, Hey, Buttrfly, Yup, Bluesky, Threads, Warpcast, Firefly, Zora, Discord, IG, YouTube, SoundCloud, LI, and I don’t even know what else. There’s more, but it’s way too much to deliver what they’re meant for.

We're too worn down for friends, or will be soon enough. But we can still react, and talk about it with agents, if not each other yet. Maybe that can be enough to start holding the same space again.

We're ghosted by algorithms all day, told it's a skill issue, and stop trying.

Nothing genuine. No one racing to collect and save what you make. No satisfaction from the empty likes. No clue how to adjust when 9 to 5 is all gone to randomized downsizing, delays, and denials of service.

That feeling of what's wrong with viewcount chasing social everything is when you say something that's real to you, but get back silence. Or a few comments from bots.

Everything is a communication design problem now. Even your codebase, when working with agents as peer programmers that either waste or save tons of time, depending on how well you structure your talk sessions with them.

Long overdue, but finally testing yup. Not in love with the UI, but does it cross post well?

Yes, those + user level: - deterrence - emancipation - autonomy - agency - participation - systems + data integrity - access - selective encryption - persistence of memory - defense in a dark forest - etc Common thread = decentralized power, possibility + personal capacity to use our fragile freedoms -> not just tech
